Looks good. Looks like it needs some Eritex Comp Heavies and Panther tires!

Actually this build will probably take a little longer to finish. Due to the DNA products situation. But it will be a tough contender. I plan on using it at our final comp, instead of my Berg rig. But I only have three weeks to finish, hopefully it will be done by then.

| From some rumors, I don't think that they're available anymore. Harley had a limited edition. I got mine in a trade with someone on the inside.

Hope you enjoy it. Mine was very planted, side-hilled great and did amazing on verticals. I really liked to run my light. I ran Eritex comp heavies in the front and solids in the rear. |

Thanks, I know I will be pleased. I've heard nothing but great things about your chassis. Say, Are those Delrin Rings from Eritex? I will be using comp heavys aswell but some new rings would be nice. LMK.

| Yes they are Delrin and are from Eritex, I am sure Gerame would be willing to sell you a set.
